Whoa, what an unfortunate coincidence. This whole bug would be so much easier to find, if it weren't for the new server.

- lmm 14y agoThe bugs that actually hit production are always like this - a confluence of three or so factors - because if it were simpler you'd have caught it earlier. (Though I have to say, upgrading the code at the same time as you're restarting to fix a problem is really a rookie mistake. It's incredibly tempting because it saves so much time, but if you do it you will get it wrong sooner or later. One of the hardest skills in programming is acquiring that zen that you need to wait in a state of readiness for the effects of your first change to make themselves apparent, rather than changing something else)
